When Meta speaks, you would do well to listen folks. that is all. thank you sir!

As always, a thoughtful and data driven reply thank you sir.

Thanks John you always have had good insight on this forum - its all about my ability to catch this thing - if there were a reasonably reliable way to catch the mavic I would buy it in a second. I appreciate everyones time and input!

Folks, I am politely asking for those who went from a P3P to P4v2 - what are the differences you noticed, pros and cons, what I should expect...I have thousands of miles on my P3P - I have earned thousands as an amateur videographer for weddings and special events...but yesterday I had an...

Just got replies from SkyVector and 1800WXBRIEF....

Just got an email from Leidos flight services stating exactly that. Starting October 19, you will no longer be able to self report your UAV flights and have them appear on SkyVector. Only UAV flights that generate a NOTAM will make the cut. In my opinion, this is a step backwards, not...

Thank you. I have litchi, I have flown with litchi, but maybe you know...does litchi allow you to take dynamic pics in flight. I really can't have the bird stop at every waypoint point to take a still image. I will need a sizeable number of pics. Stopping and starting might be an issue...

Ok I have posted on DJI forum and here as well, and I am running out of time and options. I fly the P3P. Since 2015. I've got several hundred hours of flying this bird without incident. I have been hired to fly around 250 acres several times this summer. (have had my 107 since 2016). I need...

I have clearance from Clarence. P3P. DroneDeploy WILL NOT fly in BLUE authorization zone, no matter whose authority you have. DJI GO App allows me to fly, but I need to fly Grids over 200+acres several times this summer. DJI GO does not (AKAIK) have this feature. I am having trouble with...

I am unable to envision use of a drone which requires landing on terra firma - hand catching a mavic seems....unsafe.

Just paid the $150 to CATS last week and took exam at 9am this morning. 40 questions, I got 4 wrong, so 90%. 70% is passing. I got an 85% on my original 60 question exam 2 years ago. One weather question, but really it was a rules question: along the lines of "its foggy but expected to...

its a future museum. www.myairforceone.com nice shots though :-)

This is a LOT of great feedback, thank you all. I think a variation of glue, and a better inspection of where the shell is and is not cracked, and perhaps popping the top to see what's what, before I ship it back - again that would be lost revenue for the downtime, but...safety first. I always...
